f <br />September 13, 1995 <br />City Of Orono <br />Municipal Offices <br />P. 0. Box 66 <br />Crystal Bay, Minnesota <br />Dear Council Members: <br />55323-0066 <br />As some of you know, I have supported the municipal sewer concept <br />for the adjacent North Long Lake neighborhood. At the information <br />meeting on July 12, 1995, I was told that due to the unfeasibility <br />of more than one lift station, ray property would be required to <br />employ a grinder/force main. According to septic system designers, <br />engineers, contractors, and service companies, this type of set-up <br />is less deslreable and in fact far inferior to my present system. <br />I now must request to "Opt Out" of participation in the proposed <br />municipal sewer system for the following reasons: <br />1. Mv present system (New "Mound" type) is in full compliance with <br />all State of Minnesota regulations, and Orono City ordinances. <br />2. My system has been designed and engineered to be maintained <br />indefinitely. <br />3. Proposed design using grinder pump/force main would be inferior <br />to existing system. <br />4. 3/4 of ray property is located in the excluded area - (See attached map). <br />5^ Property does not front or abut any city street or right of way. <br />6. Property has no lake frontage and is located at least 400 feet <br />from lakeshore. <br />Thank vou for your attention in this matter. <br />Sincerely, <br />Keith R. VandenBranden
